Soon after Noah went on a mazey run taking on the Manuden defence, He then unleashed a fierce shot which was deflected into the net by an unfortunate Manuden player. 2-0 Rovers. Rovers were playing well passing the ball and controlling the match. Lucas dribbled the ball into the box, but had his feet taken from him with a badly timed tackle. Penalty to Rovers. Lucas stepped forward and converted the stop kick. 3-0 Rovers. Just before half time Alfie who had hardly had a touch of the ball pulled off a great save, pushing a shot around the post. Rovers went in at half time 3 0 to the good.

The second half began with Rovers continuing their dominance. Kian took on the Manuden defence, going around a number of players before delivering a good cross which Dan T converted with a cool finish for his second.

Rovers next goal saw  Dan T put a good pass through to Kian who found the back of the net with a clinical shot. 6-0 Rovers.
